Hide the cat's face, the chaos gradually wants charming eye.

As long as the domestic

33% off of the price can buy the same product, which is hard for many people to resist.

For a time, overseas purchasing became a new favorite of consumption.

However, the consequent market chaos quickly pushed the industry into the wilderness of development.

"Take pictures of duty-free shops, keep small invoice, gift bags, dust-proof bags, instructions..."

Li Lin, who was studying in the UK, always had a busy time before leaving the holiday, sending out purchasing information on Taobao, QQ and WeChat to earn the difference to buy her home ticket.

Beside Li Lin, there are many students who participate in purchasing, but there are different ways.

Some people are even responsible for receiving parcels from the country, changing their packages, and sending them back.

"Go abroad to circle," Shanzhai "become a big card."

Be engaged in

For 4 years, Xu Xiao sniffed at this kind of behavior, but there was no alternative.

Studying abroad in Canada

Run an online shop and introduce various kinds of international brand bags on WeChat every day, releasing photos of foreign goods taken abroad, with the gimmick of "foreign trade original order", "counters to get goods" and so on.

Li Lin, who is well versed in the way of purchasing, explains that the so-called "foreign trade originals" are mostly made in accordance with the same skin and the same process, but hardware accessories are "Shanzhai".

Grey area, difficult to standardize management

The head of the Customs General Administration said that for a long time, overseas purchasing behavior was handled in accordance with the relevant provisions of personal and postal articles of entry and exit, and there were no specific laws and regulations to define and constrain it.

Some people have split their imported taxable goods into multiple tickets and false reports as personal "goods", which have been beyond the scope of "reasonable and self occupied" through postal delivery and express mail channels. In essence, they are using personal goods tax-free concessions, evading tariffs and profiteering.

However, in practice, it is difficult to clearly define whether the passing items are "reasonable and self occupied".

Xu Xiaotan said, in its 4 years engaged in overseas purchasing, "buyers" frequently carry goods into and out of the country. They have been duty-free and never been stuck by customs.

The actual regulatory difficulties make the overseas purchasing industry a gray area, and the quality and safety problems of the goods follow.

Because of the difficulty in obtaining evidence, the rights and interests of consumers can hardly be guaranteed.

"Buyers can not tell the true or false of their products, nor can they go to the shopping mall counters to check the goods. Sellers are naturally afraid."

Xu Xiao believes that the relationship between overseas buyers and sellers is based on integrity and creates insurmountable obstacles for consumers to safeguard their rights.

Combination of dredging and blocking, new regulations, regulating purchasing industry

The new regulation in August 1st is believed to have enabled overseas purchasing industry to enter into a standardized operation stage with laws.

According to the new regulation, overseas purchasing is incorporated into the tax system. Individual purchasing behavior needs to be handled by "checklist and nuclear release" to handle the entry and exit formalities of electronic commerce, and order, payment, logistics and other information are submitted to the customs to facilitate monitoring, and consumer rights protection will be well documented.

Overseas purchasing behavior with incomplete procedures, suspected of smuggling and tax evasion, will be punished by customs.

The combination of new regulations and congestion allows overseas purchasing behavior to exist. However, strict supervision has led to a heavy blow to the overseas purchasing business of individual online stores.

Xiao Lin said frankly, according to the new regulations, counterfeiting "going abroad for one day tour" will not work. The real goods will have to pay a lot of taxes, and the cost will be greatly improved. But if we do not follow the new rules, we may be prosecuted for smuggling.

"Wait and see, when the situation is bad, we will change."

A staff member of the Shenzhen customs office said that in terms of supervision, many departments such as industry and commerce, customs, finance and taxation, quality inspection and banks are still in the stage of individual soldier operations. It is urgent for the government to strengthen the top-level design and coordination of the system.
